    That's normal. 22 off the gas while in gear.

      Its automatic. Butterfly is open thru shifts so constant boost.

      Awesome engine bay btw.

        auto transmission lol, although it sounds like anti lag when I let off after a pull.

          Its normal for it to peg itself to a lean (or leanest) condition as you tip out by lifting off the gas pedal (I remember I had to get use to it with my LC-1 as well as when I had an AEM UEGO in my STI). Sounds like the gauge is working ok, you should be bouncing between 13-15 afr @ cruise (closest to stoich/lambda). Does the gauge go from HTR to CAL then your AFR readings comeback? This is an Innovate Motorsports AFR gauge correct? What are your WOT AFR's? The car sounds awesome, if I rolled on you I would swear you had a V8 under the hood the way your car is grumbling and loping! This really makes me want to build/turbo my m20 and not do an s5x swap, just to keep it OG under the hood. Also like the color options you went with under the hood for the valve cover and compressor housing, great touch! :)

            it just goes from htr back to a reading. I couldnt see my AFR guage when I hit full boost, I was too scared and looking at the road lol and I'm legally blind in my right eye where the gauge is mounted so I should probably move it..

                We need a video of you driving it. Glad You got it running. Turbos and autos. You make me want to piece together a set-up for my car.

                          Wide band sounds normal. Mine jumps around a bit while cruising but still stays in the general vicinity and goes lean when I let off the throttle.
